Why? I do this because sexual assault has happened to a few of my
friends. Its devastating seeing the effects it has had on them and
their college experience. Its something that not many students believe
could happen to them, but the reality is that it can happen to anyone.
My hope and goal in this program is to reach out to as many students so
they are aware that sexual assault could happen but it doesn't have to
if they take precautions and responsibility in their lives.

Major: Math, Education, Minor in Japanese
Hobbies: Cooking, Learning languages, video games, Greek Life
Why? With personal experiences, I understand where the need of personal safety education is necessary. A lot of people are either misinformed or not educated about the situations on campus. My ultimate goal is make sure that students on campus know what the University of Nevada has to offer, and what resources the students may take.

Major: Secondary Education
Hobbies: Spanish, hanging out with friends, History, relaxing outside of class.
Why? The reason I joined this job is because I want to educate our student body. I think that many students take safety for granted and they need to understand the reality of the dangerous world, and take small actions to secure their safety on campus and in our community.

Hobbies: Dancing, Music, Running, Cooking, Journalism, Intramural Sports
Why? I became interested in representing a group such as Guarded by the Pack that works
to prevent sexual assault because of personal experiences and those of
both friends and family. I would like my peers to be more aware of
their surroundings and know the importance of avoiding dangerous
situations; especially as a college student. We should all become more
informed of the ways to prevent sexual assault because it does happen:
Fact - For every 1,000 women attending college, there will be 35
incidents of rape in a given academic year. My request of every guy on
our campus is this: When you know a man is disrespecting a woman, Stand
Up, Speak Up, and Stop Rape. My request of every girl on our campus is
this: if you don't feel completely comfortable with a guy, don't be
afraid to be "rude," and leave the situation.
